Stillbirth

As citizen of the United States we as a people are entitled to multiple rights. One of the most commonly recognized rights are the Miranda Right, which states “You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law. You have the right to an attorney. If you cannot afford an attorney, one will be provided for you. Even with all the investigative shows on television today such as Law in Order, First 48, its amazing the number of people that still over look their rights.Throughout her book The New Jim Crow, Alexander makes several claims; however, two of her most important claims are showing how people of color who lack resources do not receive adequate legal counsel, and how society is allowed to discriminate on a person once he/she is labeled a convict; these two claims can be supported and backed-up by examining specific cases from Stevenson’s Just Mercy. Poor Ian Manuel was a young boy (13 years old) when he and some "friends" robbed a couple and shot a woman after she refused to cooperate. She didn’t die but she was hurt. After listening to the advise of his unprepared lawyer Ian plead guilty to the crime. He was tried as an adult and sentenced to life in prison with out parole. Because he was so young and small for his age, he was put in solitary confinement to keep him out of harms way from the other prisoners. Placed very small isolated room where he had little to no human contact, Ian started cutting himself, probably…

In the following report, the variable Maternal Mortality, and the variable Number of Physicians will be examined. The hypothesis going into this examination is that the two variables will have a strong relationship. The aim of this bivariate investigation is to determine whether or not this theory is correct. At first examination, it was decided that the two variables would be related, as the likelihood of maternal death during childbirth is increasingly unlikely when the number of doctors…

Victor Hugo once wrote: “Even the darkest night will end and the sun will rise”. Grief never ends. It haunts and buren 's someone 's life for years. In M. L. Stedman’s The Light Between Oceans, grief, loss, and healing is a recurring theme in the novel, as all characters go through at least one devastating loss. Hannah’s husband has died, her daughter’s alive but not with her. Isabel and Tom have two miscarriages and a stillborn baby. These situations are hard for everyone to cope with, and…

Research demonstrates that utilization of tobacco, liquor, or illegal medication or mishandle of physician recommended sedates by the mother to be can have serious wellbeing outcomes for the newborn.

It is a very severe matter when a child dies at such a young age. Along with abortions, stillbirths are also a risk that a mother faces after consuming alcohol. Any “fetal demise that occurs after the 20th week” is no longer considered a miscarriage, but a stillbirth and “6.22 of every 1000 pregnancies” end in a stillbirth every year in the United States (Bailey and Sokol 88-89). Again, every defect has a risk, and that risk increases when a mother drinks while the child is still inside her. For…

Imani Moore Rita J. Czukas SOCSCI 201 Research paper draft 18 November 2015 Infant Death According to Dr. Mary Harding, in 2013 there were approximately 24,000 stillbirths and neonatal deaths reported in the United States (Harding, para 1). Many people today really don’t have knowledge on stillbirth and neonatal death until they come across it. Stillbirth is death of a baby before and during delivery. Neonatal death is when a baby dies in the first 28 days of life. In many cases the direct cause…

Infant mortality rates are a terrible thing to look at. The city of Milwaukee for example, had 25% of Wisconsin’s infant deaths in the year 2010. Even though the number of births and the number of infant deaths has been declining in Milwaukee, it is still a serous problem. Between the years of 2009-2011, Milwaukee had a total of 205 stillbirths and 318 infant births. With the black population having the highest total infant mortality rate at 14.0 per 1,000 deaths. That is more than triple the…

infants.

Stillbirth happens when a babies die in the womb after 20 weeks of pregnancy.

Samantha should avoid smoking, drinking, using drugs, and consuming caffeine during her pregnancy. The first reason why I believe that she not smoke during her pregnancy is because it can cause the baby to have potential health issues. According to the March of Dimes article, "smoking during pregnancy" it states how smoking can cause the baby to be born prematurely, to have a low birth weight, stillbirth, miscarriages, and possibly death. Therefore, smoking during a pregnancy has major risks for…

Every year over one thousand babies die because expectant mothers smoke during their pregnancy, resulting in a fatality. The effects of smoking during pregnancy on newborns can be harmful to babies when they are born, and even be deadly. Some expectant mothers smoke because they are addicted to nicotine or due to stress, but no matter the reason an unborn baby is still being potentially harmed. Some of the most known birth defects in newborns, from mothers smoking, are premature birth,…
